Student Health App - university customisation

Going to university can be a challenging time. With student mental health problems on the rise, many students - and university support services - are overwhelmed.

The Student Health App (previously known as 'ESC Student') aims to help by providing useful and reliable health information for your students. It's FREE for universities and students to use, and anyone can download it.

"There has never been a more crucial time for students to have access to reliable, safe, relevant health information. Student numbers are increasing, and demand for health advice and support is also rising. Students need to be able to access credible help fast. The student health app provides all of this, on a wide range of topics, from mental and sexual health through to festival health and travel. They shouldn't leave home without it"

(Dr Dominique Thompson, National Student Health and Wellbeing Expert)

As a university, you can now provide extra value for your students with a customised version of the Student Health App.

What does customisation mean?

Customisation means that we create a tile with your university's logo for the homepage that leads to a newly created university-branded page with links to your own support resources (see UCL example above) - all in one single place:

LOCAL SUPPORT: get ahead of the game and make it really easy for your students to find local health and wellbeing support - particularly useful for newly arrived international students and in times of crisis

DUTY OF CARE: show you care and demonstrate your commitment to supporting student health and wellbeing - even before your students arrive at university

STUDENT EXPERIENCE: provide a personalised experience for your students - make your service provision more seamless and help your students flourish

STREAMLINE INFORMATION: Provide consistency, fairness and inclusivity when it comes to health advice and support info - especially if you have separate campuses and your students spend time abroad

BRAND AWARENESS: increase your institution's brand awareness and identity - among current and prospective students, as well as their parents and carers
